Summary, etc. "Since about 2010 evidence has been growing that the rush to control water resources is an important cause, as well as effect, of the phenomenon now commonly known as land grabbing." (Authors' introduction). This article looks at differences (both local and international) in the control and management of land and water resources. Also discusses water rights, informal access and historical practices, and notes the mixed impact of transnational corporations who use water for agriculture, drinks, and industrial purposes. Calls for water to be formalised as a human right with priority given to "... the well being and livelihoods of the poor, marginalised and vulnerable with regard to access, use and control", and for better coordination of land and water rights advocacy.
